British Movie Entertainments on VHS and DVD: A Classic Movie Fan's Guide
ISBN: 9780557582754 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 294 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Unlike their American colleagues, British suppliers were extremely slow to release their country's superb libraries of classic films for movie fans to purchase on either VHS tapes or DVD discs. In 2004, little over 100 titles were available. But now there are around 700, with promises of many more to come. This book details some of the best. Over 400 movies in all are described in either minute detail or in summary form! The quality (or lack of quality) in the DVD transfer is fearlessly indicated. The author's emphasis is on movies made before 1970, especially those with popular stars such as...

MARK and JOHN The First and Last Gospels
ISBN: 9780557119219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 178 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. A radical new translation of the New Testament Gospels of Mark and John, this book also includes the three Biblical letters written by John, the Elder, plus the first letter attributed to Peter, which, as Peter himself acknowledges in his postscript, was actually written by Silvanus. One of many innovations in this new translation, is that for the first time in 1,800 years, all Scripture references made by the evangelists have been traced back to the Greek Septuagint which they actually quoted, not the "correct" Hebrew text which most theologians think they should have used. Some of the...

World's Worst Westerns Plus Some of the Best Your Guide to the Best of the Worst
ISBN: 9781329548374 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Once by far Hollywoods largest category of popular movies, Westerns are now out of fashion with the movie-going public, but they still hold a commanding presence on DVD. Until recently, Westerns were one of the most popular DVD categories, third only to action and science fiction. Many, many titles from the 1930s and 1940s were made by small, independent companies that no longer exist. A huge number of westerns are therefore in the public domain and are now available on DVD from outlets like Alpha and Grapevine. In fact, there are currently so many titles on DVD, that guides like "Worlds...
